A propos du livre

Biographie de l'auteur

Former RAF pilot and investigative journalist, Frederick Forsyth defined the modern thriller when he wrote The Day of The Jackal, described by Lee Child as ‘the book that broke the mould’, with its lightning-paced storytelling, effortlessly cool reality and unique insider information. Since then he has written twelve novels which have been bestsellers around the world: The Odessa File, The Dogs of War, The Devil's Alternative, The Fourth Protocol, The Negotiator, The Deceiver, The Fist of God, Icon, Avenger, The Afghan, The Cobra and, most recently, The Kill List. He lives in Buckinghamshire, England.

Quatrième de couverture

'A stirring and beautiful story'
The Times

It is Christmas Eve, 1957. Flying home, on leave from Germany, a pilot is on a solo flight in the cockpit of a De Havilland Vampire. Sixty-six minutes of flying time, with a landing destination in England. No problem, all routine procedures.

But suddenly out over the Ocean, fog begins to close in, radio contact ceases and the compass goes haywire. When all hope is lost, out of the mist appears a World War II bomber, flying just below the Vampire, as if trying to make contact...

'A cunningly wrought tale'
Financial Times
